Objectives
- Part 1: Set Up the Topology and Initialize Devices
- Part 2: Configure Devices and Verify Connectivity
Background / Scenario
This is a comprehensive lab to review previously covered IOS commands. In this lab, you will cable the equipment as shown in the topology diagram. You will then configure the devices to match the addressing table. After the configurations have been saved, you will verify your configurations by testing for network connectivity.
After the devices have been configured and network connectivity has been verified, you will use IOS commands to retrieve information from the devices to answer questions about your network equipment.
This lab provides minimal assistance with the actual commands necessary to configure the router. Test your knowledge by trying to configure the devices without referring to the content or previous activities.
Note: The routers used with CCNA hands-on labs are Cisco 4221 with Cisco IOS XE Release 16.9.4 (universalk9 image). The switches used in the labs are Cisco Catalyst 2960s with Cisco IOS Release 15.2(2) (lanbasek9 image). Other routers, switches, and Cisco IOS versions can be used. Depending on the model and Cisco IOS version, the commands available and the output produced might vary from what is shown in the labs. Refer to the Router Interface Summary Table at the end of the lab for the correct interface identifiers.
Note: Ensure that the routers and switches have been erased and have no startup configurations. Consult with your instructor for the procedure to initialize and reload a router and switch.
The default bias template used by the Switch Database Manager (SDM) does not provide IPv6 address capabilities. Verify that SDM is using either the dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 template or the lanbase-routing template. The new template will be used after reboot even if the configuration is not saved.
S1# show sdm prefer
Use the following commands to assign the dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 template as the default SDM template.
S1# configure terminal S1(config)# sdm prefer dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 default S1(config)# end S1# reload
Required Resources
- 1 Router (Cisco 4221 with Cisco IOS XE Release 16.9.4 universal image or comparable)
- 1 Switch (Cisco 2960 with Cisco IOS Release 15.2(2) lanbasek9 image or comparable)
- 2 PCs (Windows with a terminal emulation program, such as Tera Term)
- Console cables to configure the Cisco IOS devices via the console ports
- Ethernet cables as shown in the topology
Note: The Gigabit Ethernet interfaces on Cisco 4221 routers are autosensing and an Ethernet straight-through cable may be used between the router and PC-B. If using another model Cisco router, it may be necessary to use an Ethernet crossover cable.
Instructor Note: A USB driver must be installed prior to connecting a Microsoft Windows-based PC to a Cisco IOS device with a USB cable. The driver can be found on www.cisco.com with the related Cisco IOS device. The USB driver can be downloaded from the following link:
Instructor Note: You must have a valid Cisco Connection Online (CCO) account to download the USB driver file.
Instructions
Part 1: Set Up Topology and Initialize Devices
Step 1: Cable the network as shown in the topology.
a. Attach the devices shown in the topology diagram, and cable, as necessary.
b. Power on all the devices in the topology.
Step 2: Initialize and reload the router and switch.
On Switch: Switch# delete flash:vlan.dat Switch# erase startup-config Switch# reload On Router: Router# erase startup-config Router# reload
If configuration files were previously saved on the router and switch, initialize and reload these devices back to their default configurations.
Part 2: Configure Devices and Verify Connectivity
In Part 2, you will set up the network topology and configure basic settings, such as the interface IP addresses, device access, and passwords. Refer to the Error! Reference source not found. and Error! Reference source not found. at the beginning of this lab for device names and address information.
Step 1: Assign static IP information to the PC interfaces.
a. Configure the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway settings on PC-A.
b. Configure the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway settings on PC-B.
c. Ping PC-B from a command prompt window on PC-A.
Note: If pings are not successful, the Windows Firewall may need to be turned off.
Why were the pings not successful?
The router interfaces (default gateways) have not been configured yet so Layer 3 traffic is not being routed between subnets.
Step 2: Configure the router.
a. Console into the router and enable privileged EXEC mode.
Router> enable
b. Enter configuration mode.
Router# config terminal
c. Assign a device name to the router.
Router(config)# hostname R1
d. Disable DNS lookup to prevent the router from attempting to translate incorrectly entered commands as though they were host names.
R1(config)# no ip domain-lookup
e. Assign class as the privileged EXEC encrypted password.
R1(config)# enable secret class
f. Assign cisco as the console password and enable login.
R1(config)# line console 0 R1(config-line)# password cisco R1(config-line)# login
g. Assign cisco as the VTY password and enable login.
R1(config)# line vty 0 4 R1(config-line)# password cisco R1(config-line)# login
h. Encrypt the plaintext passwords.
R1(config)# service password-encryption
i. Create a banner that warns anyone accessing the device that unauthorized access is prohibited.
R1(config)# banner motd $ Authorized Users Only! $
j. Configure and activate both interfaces on the router.
R1(config)# interface g0/0/0 R1(config-if)# ip address 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 R1(config-if)# ipv6 address 2001:db8:acad::1/64 R1(config-if)# ipv6 address FE80::1 link-local R1(config-if)# no shutdown R1(config-if)# exit R1(config)# interface g0/0/1 R1(config-if)# ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 R1(config-if)# ipv6 address 2001:db8:acad:1::1/64 R1(config-if)# ipv6 address fe80::1 link-local R1(config-if)# no shutdown R1(config-if)# exit
k. Configure an interface description for each interface indicating which device is connected to it.
R1(config)# interface g0/0/1 R1(config-if)# description Connected to F0/5 on S1 R1(config-if)# exit R1(config)# interface g0/0/0 R1(config-if)# description Connected to Host PC-B R1(config-if)# exit
l. To enable IPv6 routing, enter the command ipv6 unicast-routing.
R1(config)# ipv6 unicast-routing
m. Save the running configuration to the startup configuration file.
R1(config)# exit R1# copy running-config startup-config
n. Set the clock on the router.
R1# clock set 15:30:00 27 Aug 2019
Note: Use the question mark (?) to help with the correct sequence of parameters needed to execute this command.
o. Ping PC-B from a command prompt window on PC-A.
Note: If pings are not successful, the Windows Firewall may need to be turned off.
Were the pings successful? Explain.
Yes. The router is routing the ping traffic across the two subnets. The default settings for the 2960 switch will automatically turn up the interfaces that are connected to devices.
Step 3: Configure the switch.
In this step, you will configure the hostname, the VLAN 1 interface and its default gateway.
a. Console into the switch and enable privileged EXEC mode.
Right-click on switch S1, select “Inspect Rear” to display S1 console port.
Use the console cable to connect PC-B to the switch through the console port.
Switch> enable
b. Enter configuration mode.
Switch# config terminal
c. Assign a device name to the switch.
Switch(config)# hostname S1
d. Disable DNS lookup to prevent the router from attempting to translate incorrectly entered commands as though they were host names.
S1(config)# no ip domain-lookup
e. Configure and activate the VLAN interface on the switch S1.
S1(config)# interface vlan 1 S1(config-if)# ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 S1(config-if)# no shutdown S1(config-if)# exit
f. Configure the default gateway for the switch S1.
S1(config)# ip default-gateway 192.168.1.1 S1(config-if)# end
g. Save the running configuration to the startup configuration file.
S1# copy running-config startup-config
Step 4: Verify connectivity end-to-end connectivity.
a. From PC-A, ping PC-B.
b. From S1, ping PC-B.
All the pings should be successful.
Part 3: Display Device Information
In Part 3, you will use show commands to retrieve interface and routing information from the router and switch.
Step 1: Display the routing table on the router.
a. Use the show ip route command on the router R1 to answer the following questions.
R1# show ip route

Step 3: Display a summary list of the interfaces on the router and switch.
There are several commands that can be used to verify an interface configuration. One of the most useful of these is the show ip interface brief command. The command output displays a summary list of the interfaces on the device and provides immediate feedback to the status of each interface.
a. Enter the show ip interface brief command on the router R1.
R1# show ip interface brief Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol GigabitEthernet0/0/0 192.168.0.1 YES manual up up GigabitEthernet0/0/1 192.168.1.1 YES manual up up Serial0/1/0 unassigned YES unset up up Serial0/1/1 unassigned YES unset up up
b. To see the IPv6 interface information, enter the show ipv6 interface brief command on R1.
R1# show ipv6 interface brief

c. Enter the show ip interface brief command on the switch S1.
S1# show ip interface brief Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol Vlan1 192.168.1.2 YES NVRAM up up FastEthernet0/1 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/2 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/3 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/4 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/5 unassigned YES unset up up FastEthernet0/6 unassigned YES unset up up FastEthernet0/7 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/8 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/9 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/10 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/11 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/12 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/13 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/14 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/15 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/16 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/17 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/18 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/19 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/20 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/21 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/22 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/23 unassigned YES unset down down FastEthernet0/24 unassigned YES unset down down GigabitEthernet0/1 unassigned YES unset down down GigabitEthernet0/2 unassigned YES unset down down
Reflection Questions
1. If the G0/0/1 interface showed that it was administratively down, what interface configuration command would you use to turn the interface up?
R1(config-if)# no shutdown
2. What would happen if you had incorrectly configured interface G0/0/1 on the router with an IP address of 192.168.1.2?
PC-A would not be able to ping PC-B. This is because PC-B is on a different network than PC-A which requires the default-gateway router to route these packets. PC-A is configured to use the IP address of 192.168.1.1 for the default-gateway router, but this address is not assigned to any device on the LAN. Any packets that need to be sent to the default-gateway for routing will never reach their destination.

Note: To find out how the router is configured, look at the interfaces to identify the type of router and how many interfaces the router has. There is no way to effectively list all the combinations of configurations for each router class. This table includes identifiers for the possible combinations of Ethernet and Serial interfaces in the device. The table does not include any other type of interface, even though a specific router may contain one. An example of this might be an ISDN BRI interface. The string in parenthesis is the legal abbreviation that can be used in Cisco IOS commands to represent the interface.
